Description
This mod adds a massive Overworld boss: a custom Warden Wither Storm that spawns once per Minecraft day near a player and shows a boss bar so you always know its status. The storm is scaled up and hostile, with 1,500,000 HP, high melee damage, long-range target acquisition, a powerful sonic-boom attack with strong knockback, and a periodic storm aura that deals close-range magic damage and inflicts wither and weakness. Fight it for rare, high-value rewards — its loot table can drop sculk catalysts, netherite ingots, diamonds, echo shards, and has small chances to reward enchanted golden apples, a nether star, or a totem. Only one boss can exist at a time, so prepare, gather allies, and hunt it when it appears each day.
Mod Wiki
Overworld Warden Storm
Quickstart
- Load into any Overworld world with the mod installed.
- At the start of each new Minecraft day, watch for a purple title message: "The Overworld Warden Storm rises." A lightning bolt marks the exact spawn point.
- Check your boss bar — it appears as soon as the Storm is within 96 blocks of you, showing its remaining health.
- Gear up with your best armor and weapons, then head toward the lightning strike location (36–58 blocks from a random player) to engage the boss.
- Kill it to collect rare loot dropped at its location.
Overview
The Overworld Warden Storm is a colossal daily boss that haunts the Overworld. Twice the size of a normal Warden, it boasts 1,500,000 HP, extreme melee power, and a suite of dangerous abilities. Only one can exist in the world at a time. It spawns automatically once per Minecraft day near a player and despawns permanently only when killed — if it survives the day, it stays until defeated before a new one can appear the next day.

How To Use
Locating the Boss
When a new day begins, all players receive a screen title announcing the Storm's arrival. A lightning bolt strikes at its spawn location, which is 36–58 blocks away (horizontally) from a random Overworld player, at roughly their elevation. The boss bar at the top of the screen tracks its health once you come within 96 blocks.
Engaging the Boss
Approach from range first — the Storm has a wide melee hitbox and 360° attack awareness. Ranged weapons, potions, and coordinated group attacks are strongly recommended. Watch for the sonic boom and retreat when you hear the charge sound.
Claiming the Loot
When the Storm dies, all players see the title "The Warden Storm has fallen" and a subtitle noting that rare loot has been released. Head to where it fell to collect the drops.
Abilities And Mechanics
Melee Attack
Deals 120 damage per hit with a 360° field of view. The Storm moves at a brisk pace and will relentlessly chase any player within 96 blocks — no line of sight required.
Sonic Boom
The Storm charges up and unleashes a long-range sonic boom with a 32-block horizontal and vertical reach, dealing 90 damage and applying massive horizontal knockback (and some vertical knockback). It has a short cooldown of ~1.5 seconds, so staying at mid-range is dangerous.
Storm Aura (Periodic)
Every 5 seconds the Storm pulses an aura centered on itself:
- Wither II and Weakness II are applied to all players within 48 blocks for 6 seconds.
- 18 magic damage is dealt directly to all players within 7 blocks.
Stay out of close range to avoid the direct damage tick, but be aware that the wither and weakness effects will reach you even from a distance.
Emergence
When it first spawns, the Storm performs a rising emergence animation lasting about 7 seconds before it becomes fully active.
Boss Resistance
The Storm has full knockback resistance — no weapon, explosion, or attack will push it back. Plan your positioning accordingly; it will always close distance on its own terms.
Anger System
Like a standard Warden, the Storm tracks vibrations and suspicion. Its anger escalates through agitated and enraged states, changing its ambient sounds and heartbeat speed as it becomes more dangerous.
Loot Table
All pools below drop every time the Storm is killed. Conditional drops have the listed probability.
| Item | Amount | Chance |
|---|---|---|
| Sculk Catalyst | 2–4 | Always |
| Netherite Ingot | 2–5 | Always |
| Diamond | 16–32 | Always |
| Echo Shard | 4–10 | Always |
| Enchanted Golden Apple | 1 | 35% |
| Nether Star | 1 | 12% |
| Totem of Undying | 1 | 8% |
Progression And Strategy
Before the fight:
- Full Netherite armor with Protection IV is strongly recommended given the 120 melee damage.
- Bring Strength potions, Regeneration potions, and ideally a Totem of Undying.
- Stock up on Milk Buckets to clear the Wither effect between engagements.
- Recruit friends — the Storm targets a single player but its aura and sonic boom hit everyone in range, making coordinated flanking effective.
During the fight:
- Stay beyond 7 blocks at all times to avoid the direct aura damage tick.
- Back away and listen for the sonic-boom charge sound; reposition before it fires.
- Use the full 96-block boss-bar range to track health and decide when to press or retreat.
- Ranged attacks (bows, crossbows, tridents) let you deal damage while staying out of melee range.
After the fight:
- The Storm respawns the following Minecraft day, giving you time to resupply.
- Netherite ingot and diamond drops mean regular kills can accelerate your gear progression significantly.
- A Nether Star drop (12% chance) provides a renewable path to Beacons without requiring the vanilla Wither fight.
